hey guys

just a question... do i now qualify as a full ling member?

i pretty much blame Roff for making me get this with his incredible hookup, a deal too good to pass up. thanks again man!

You are now officially a Full Ling club member - welcome aboard!!

Glad that everything worked out for you - it makes it worthwhile - and that's an awesome watch. :thumbsup:

Going to see the AD tomorrow so I'll be sure to let her know that everything arrived safely.

hey Roff, i was in toronto this past weekend so was able to pick it up myself!

Congratulations, great piece!

Driver: I'm pretty sure the first wording was only about size (diameter and lug width) and on a bracelet. The polished thing entered later, when all the icing stuff got involved into a djungle of subcategories...

Nothing else but a full ling, and a beautiful one too!
:thumbsup:

Right, Ling Man - if you're out there we need an adjudication on this one! Is the Motors T a Full Ling or does the brushed finish affect it's membership credentials!???!

Driver8,

The brushed portion of the watch makes it a full ling on probation pending entry!! It meets the size requirements but does not measure on the bling meter :wink:

ok guys i've removed the full ling icon until my membership is official lol

i guess i have to buy another watch

Great piece! BUT, and I might be pre-empting Ling Man on this - I was sure the Full Ling membership required full polishing and not the half brushed of the Motors T. (As if any of that really matters! )

If we start suggesting that 48.7mm of watch is insufficient for Full Ling status then we are on a slippery slope, even if not every part is mirror like. Come on Ling Man, show some humanity, show some mellowing in your golden years, go easy on the Mototrs T and let it in

We definitely need to defer this to Ling Man - the Founding Father of the Ling Classification System (FFLCS). Where is he these days??? There's important business to attend to here!!!!
